Kreuzspitze Heel Pieces
Hardened steel forks? Check. Flat-on-ski mode? Check. Optional risers? Check. Optional adjustment plates? You betcha. The Trofeo heels from Kreuzspitze are long on features and quality. The small Italian manufacturer makes the heels in-house with the rest of their RS bindings and accessories. We think Kreuzspitze won't be a strange name for long. Sold individually, so get 2 for both your feet.
- Replaceable steel forks are hardened to support heavy loads and wear.
- 6mm heel gap can handle aggressive skiing and makes for a great flat-on-ski mode.
- Tower rotates in either direction for a flat-on-ski touring mode.
- Optional risers can be screwed onto the forks and used by rotating the heel 180 degrees.
- Optional adjustment plates add 14, 18, or 40 millimeters of adjustment.
- The 14mm adjustment plates are screw-hole compatible with Dynafit touring bindings.
Binding Model | Weight (g) | Weight (oz) |

Purchased some RSA heels to accommodate boot changes on my race set up. Replaced PDG heels for a few grams of weight penalty, but really appreciated the ability for flat-on-ski touring, especially in the Gothic Mountain Tour. They're sturdy and the turning mechanism seems to work smoothly every time, I haven't had any problems with them icing up. They're currently mounted on an adjustment plate and I haven't noticed the increase in ramp angle significantly. I would consider putting these on a less race oriented ski and purchasing the optional risers.

What is different between RS and SCTT? Is the RS more wear-resistant over the SCTT? Or the opposite?
And is there any lady version(softer) of steel fork heel piece from Kreuzspitze? I believe the steel is more wear-resistant than titian forks?

Hi liming, color is the only difference on those heels (the RS has a new toe piece but heel is the same). Yes steel is more wear resistant than Titanium. The softer version is the RS-L (lady), which is titanium.

What's the difference between the SCTTT and the SCTTT-L?
4/4/2020
Hi Jim, the SCTTT-L is the "Lady" version that has softer springs.

Does Kreuspitze still make the EL? If so, will you be carrying EL heel pieces any time in the future?
12/21/2019
Robert, Yes they do, but sorry we are sold out of the complete binding for the season. We haven't yet been selling the EL heel individually.

I recently tried to adjust the heel pieces mounted on a second-hand pair of skis. I thought the screw running parallel to the ski on the back of the heel piece (the one behind the flap of black plastic) would move the entire thing a few millimeters. I ended up removing the screw entirely (oops). I can't screw it back in because I can't get it past the black plastic flap. Is there a way to break down the heel piece and rebuild so I can replace the screw where it belongs? Or am I better off buying an entirely new heel piece?
I need to move the heel pieces a few millimeters to fit my boots, so I assume I need a heel plate to make this adjustment?

Do you see any reason I couldn't replace Dynafit Superlite 2.0 heels with Kruezsptize GT heels (but keep the Dynafit toes)?
(I realize I'd have to have someone (like you guys) mount the Kruezsptize GT heels for me, but I don't see any issue with the hole pattern interfering.)

Hi Eric, The Hole pattern is pretty close, 3mm on the length. That is too close, we would need to do a heel plate.

Magi of Skimo Co -- I'm in search of a lighter race heel piece to replace some Plum Guide heels (keeping the Guide toe pieces, hopefully). Do the SCTT heels rotate more easily than the Plum Race heels? I find it hard to spin the Plum Race heels to utilize the additional riser height without taking off the ski. Thanks in advance!
1/25/2019
Hey TSB! This would be a good way to go for sure. The machining on these bindings is very crisp and allows them to spin very easily regardless of the release value. The Plum heels seem to be unusually stiff when spinning for some reason.
1/25/2019
Awesome, thanks Trace! Would the SCTT heel pair OK with the Guide toe in terms of ramp angle or would you advocate getting a complete Kreuzspitze set? And, are you planning to get any more SCTT non-titanium heels in stock?
1/25/2019
Hey TSB! Guide toe is 29.5mm tall, SCTT heel is 28mm tall which gives you a -1.5mm delta. I think it'll be fine, but if you're worried about it, you could add an adjustment plate to even it out a bit. I think we just got a Kreuzspitze shipment actually so they should be in stock in a few hours once the team is finished checking them in. Good timing!

I have two sets of these. One is mounted on SkiTrab Magicos (with SkiTrab toes), the other on Movement X-Sessions (with Dynafit toes). I'm 5'10", 136. Mostly, I've used them for enduro ski tours. I have pushed them pretty hard on steep descents. Overall, they have worked flawlessly. They are easy to manipulate. It's a simple and lightweight design. I do have a pair of the plastic risers, which I tend to use more on my Movements when I know I'm going to be setting tracks in the deep stuff. Thanks, Skimo guys for recommending these!

I'm hoping to couple this heel with the G3 ION toe.
The top of the ION's heel pins are 55mm above the ski (i.e. the pins are 5mm thick, so are located between 50mm and 55mm above the ski).
I suspect that the Kreuzspitze pins are a fair bit lower. Can you tell us how high the pins are above the ski?
An how thick are the Kreuzspitze adjustable plates?
Thanks!

Hi Yann! The ION toe pin will be 40.5mm off the top sheet, the Kreuzspitze heel pieces are 28.5 or 29mm off the top sheet depending on the model, and the Kreuzspitze adjustment plates are about 5mm thick. Even with the plate you'll still be at almost a -7mm delta when paired with the ION toe piece.

Hi just a few questions for you.
I'm skiing a TTSystem and found that mounting a Dynafit Speed Turn heel unit will not allow me to use both the heel unit and spring cartridges in tandem like the Moonlight Tele Rando binding.
I've noticed that the Kreuzspitze SCCT / Plum Race 150 heel units look similar in design to the Tele Rando heel units.
If you are familiar with the Tele Rando binding would you be able to tell me if installing either one of the Kreuzspitze SCCT / Plum Race 150 heel units allow me use both spring/heel in tandem like the Tele Rando does?
Thanks, Kwan

Hi Quone, Moonlight and Kreuzspitze worked together on the TTS design. They are essentially the same heels.

Hi Brendan, the toe also factors into the release, quite significantly. There isn't a lateral release value for just a heel. I'd suggest visiting our binding finder to see if something would work for you.

I'm looking to pair these heels with some TLT Radical ST toes, to keep the cost down, save some weight, and configure an expedition type setup on some DPS Tour 1 112's. Whadya think?
7/22/2017
Hey Dillon, thanks for reaching out! Absolutely! There are two heel pieces offered, which one are you planning on using? The toe spring stiffness differs between the SCTT, GT, and Radical ST, so it's possible that you'll get some varied release values pairing up various toes and heels, but with the versatility of the GT you could dial it in a bit more accurately. I'd say it's a good plan, but will depend largely on the style of boot that you will be pairing this setup with. What boot are you thinking of?

if I order a pair of KREUZSPITZE HEEL and 1 set of 14 adjustment plate and a pair of heel support pad, are they will be available? and how long to take these to be delivered to NY states? suppose all the screws and nut will be included, right? and also to make sure these 14 plate will not require re-drill for dynafit speed radical heel (I had then mounted on my ski already try to reuse my dynafit toe) ?
3/4/2017
Hi Lyman, yes all nuts and bolts are included with the plates, and the 14mm version matches the Speed Rad without drilling. Everything listed as available on our site is in stock and ready to ship. It only takes a few days to get to NY, you will have a couple options at checkout.

So what is the "RV" on these? Or what is it comparable to? I have at pair of extra dynafit radical toes that's looking for a pair of heels.
2/9/2016
Hi Kjetil, the release value is affected by both the toe and heel, plus the length of your boot. These do work well with Speed Rad toes for a lot of folks. You could try our binding finder to see if it's a good match for you.
Answer this question:

These are small, light, simple, robust, and release at a reasonable value. I raced half-ish of last season with them and took them touring a few times combined with some Dynafit Radical toes. I had one lateral release in a race, stopping clumsily on icy chop. My technique sucks, and so did that hill, so I'm not calling it pre-release (and I ski with toes unlocked). I trust these skimo racing or mountianeering with lighter/shorter skis. Mind the heel gap, when mounting, as it's non-standard, and enjoy.

Hi, how do these compare with the Plum Race145's on the "burly-ness" scale? I am looking for a light-weight race style heal piece to mount with some heavier Dynafit toe pieces for a expedition type ski system. Something light but it has to withstand some abuse. Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
10/19/2014
I'd say they are fairly close in durability, with similar builds, mounting patterns, and steel forks. They do have somewhat different release mechanics and if that's a concern for you, plugging your info into the release calculator would help for a recommendation.
